The Patek Philippe Ladies Travel Time watch is a timepiece that has it all—ageless good looks, beautiful details of elegance, and horological sophistication. For ladies who appreciate exceptional watchmaking and want a watch that can keep pace with a busy travel schedule, it simply doesn’t get any better. Twin hour hands (which are usually superimposed) give you two timezones at once—home-time (indicated by the skeletonized hour hand) and the time in your current timezone, which can be easily adjusted forwards or backwards via the two buttons on the left side of the case. Since home-time and where you are headed might be far apart, a 24-hour scale atop the dial makes it easy to tell whether its day or night “back home”. This useful function is provided by the superb 215 caliber hand-wound movement, which of course, is manufactured by Patek Philippe, and bears the prestigious Geneva Seal.

I think Patek Philippe has done a great job with the design of the Ladies Travel Time watch–classic Calatrava softened with beautiful feminine details like the diamond bezel and an elaborately detailed dial. Add to that the lovely mechanism (which can naturally be seen through the sapphire caseback) and the handy timezone feature, and you have an ultra-prestigious luxury timepiece that’s also very useful.
